A US man jailed for murder after a white nationalist rally in Charlottesville has pleaded guilty to hate crimes at a court hearing.
James Alex Fields, 25, a professed neo-Nazi, was convicted on 29 of 30 counts in a deal to avoid the death penalty.
Fields was sentenced last December to life in prison after driving his car into counter-protesters in 2017, killing one person and injuring dozens.
He previously claimed he acted out of fear for his safety.
